Reviews
Good quality product
The engagement cable I bought was for a 1997 Craftsman Riding Lawn Mower that has been a workhorse for me throughout the years. The new cable looks like original quality so I expect it to last 25 years or so. Price is going up though...inflation, I guess.

Blade Engagement Cable for Sears lawn tractor.
No instructions with Part. I had to figure out how to install part by trial and error.

Terrible
I specifically told the chat agent that the non spring end of the cable has a loop end ( not a straight end) she don't worry the picture is a generic picture. So now I have a second time wrong clutch cable. Terrible service!!

Difficult to install. One hard to reach area.
The fact that I was able to get this part for a nine year old mower was outstanding! I have always been fortunate to get parts through Sears Parts Direct!

Extremely POOR quality!!!!
This was the 5th time that I have had to do replacement on the Engagement cable. The last one broke after 372 days. (It would have been free if it was 364 days!) Purchased mower in 2012. Had to order replacement cables 10-13-14, 4-24-16, 7-15-19, 8-7-20, and 8-14-2021. A representative should have reached out to me with sincere apologies (perhaps after the 3rd replacement), and an offer to replace this poorly designed part at no charge, with free overnight shipping, AT THE VERY LEAST. The only person I talked to couldn't operate the computer, so I had to "chat" my way through the process. Incidentally, I returned the part, along with a brief note pointing out the design and quality issues, refraining from any @!$%##*\@!!!! comments. Not real easy to install due to restricted access. If I ever have to do this again, I will set fire to the mower first and send you all a testimonial photo which you could use, as an example of your most favorite customer. I have purchased numerous Sears products like power tools, major appliances, chain saw, circular saw, ratchet set, car and boat batteries, car tires, and have never ever purchased such a pathetic replacement part!!!!!! Truly a totally dissatisfied former customer. Mike Carter
